Amazon.com has new listings for the never-before-seen Cyberverse Wave 2 One-Step Changers! Thankfully, they also have new stock photos to see these guys! They include Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Starscream. as you can see, these are new molds compared to wave 1, meaning they are more accurate to their show models (well, promotional pics as of late).

I knew this would happen eventually, Optimus is a retool of AOE Galvatron. Here's my review from back in the day when I called the possibility of of retools. If you'd like to rub my belly for luck and wisdom it's $5 for every rotation.

Not quite. The Autobot Cars and larger toys focused on retooling or switching out parts, while smaller toys like the Jumpstarters, some Mini-Bots and most Micromasters have shared transformations instead. More recently, the AoE One-Steps had a few standard schemes (the "switchblade" has become a mainstay), which RiD 2015 expanded on. Cyberverse seems to be revisiting some.

I saw some of the scout figures yesterday megatron bumblebee stsrscream optimus and shockwave. They look like upscaled legion class figures like beast hunters tried.


They're definitely f** ugly and very overpriced for their size. I will be bypassing the series. I'd rather own a bad bot like armada hotshot than any of these, im dead serious. ;)^

Having once owned the entire line of the transforming Transformers: Animated Happy Meal toys, they had more play value than what I see here.


I own them all too, and they are alot more fun. But someone said that they had windup mechanisms, and I will say that they don't. The french ones do, but not the american ones that I have

The other TF-stocking department store in town has Cyberverse now, which means I got my first in-person look at Ultimate Megatron and he's possibly better than I thought from pics online. For the price (NZ$58) he's a lot of bot for the money, and he looks like fun. I quite like his headsculpt too.

So I saw Scout class Megatron in a store and something compelled me to buy him. I think it might have been the scale. I caved and bought him........ And I don't regret it. It's actually kinda fun, despite not fully transforming. I actually like the half-robot/half-tank version because it reminds me of how Animated Starscream would use his legs in jet mode to fly backwards. All in all, I don't think it's that bad for the price. It could've have been better, but it also could've been a whole lot worse.

Well, Megatron is a worthy buy and even if he's not for me, only good things were said about Optimus. Plus the way this Grimlock transform is pretty original. I want Grimlock, Megs, and Shocky so far. I'm really curious to know how Bee and Screamers will turn out? :-?

40$CAN + taxes for a toy of that size is not too shabby. Considering it's the same price for a movie voyager.

From Hong Kong and their branch of Toys R Us, one of the few still resisting to stay open, we have news of another warrior class figure from the currently releasing Transformers: Cyberverse toyline - which will accompany the new animated series due this fall in the US - and it's another of the seeker team: Thundercracker!

The toy can be found on the TRU site here, currently listed for HK$169.90 (approx USD 21 at the time of writing), and sporting a whole lotta blue paint all over and the Action Attacker gimmick Lightning Slash. Check it out below!

Thundercracker and the evil Decepticon Seeker jets soar through the sky launching attacks on Autobots.

Convert and attack with Transformers Cyberverse Action Attackers!Change figure from vehicle to robot mode in 7 steps. The last step of conversion automatically activates Thundercracker figure's signature Lightning Slash Action Attack move! Once converted, attack move can be repeated through easy reactivation steps.

Look for other Action Attackers figures, each sold separately, to discover the signature attack moves of favorite Cyberverse characters!

Whelp, guess I'll begrudgingly "good enough" finish my RiD2015 Seekers after all.

I have been eyeballing Starscream at Target and this give me a reason to check out the mold.

I don't know why but this line confuses me. Almost bought a legion class figure until I figured out they were the ones that don't fully transform. WTH?

The warriors look pretty good. Is Shockwave the one everyone's talking about? Almost bought him, hesitated and he was the only one gone the next day.

There isn't any Legion class with this line, what you saw and thankfully avoided was the scouts. Also no surprise there with Shockwave, I think everyone knows now that he's the best in the line.

Ah, explains that. He did look super cool with his "angry eye". Not really filling the bot on his back walker tank though.

Tomatoes, potahtoes - same thing.

Oh that's right, this line has that spring loaded action figure thing. And all I want is a complete set of *insert universe here* Seekers. Screamer does look cool and if there is any attack gimmick it doesn't seem to compromise the figures, at least at a glance.

Everything I saw looked pretty nice with nice sculpting and good paint apps. IIRC, they are a few cyberbucks less than the mainline figures. I'll be cherry picking from the line for sure, you know if PotP and the special editions stop sucking my wallet dry.

You know the irony? All of Shockwave's articulation is a happy accident since the spider tank mode requires all limbs to be able to bend. The rest has barely past the bare minimum for transformation, and in Starscream's case, the legs are a solid chunk for stability when using the gimmick I'm guessing.

Meh, i really had high hopes for this line but sadly it doesnt do it for me i dont understand why they cant just have the same quality figs that TF PRIME had even Animated, it was cartoony like cyberverse but the toys were cool now we have this, i certainly hope the show doesnt suck as much as the toys :(

Have a video review of Ultra Class Starscream have been featured in this thread yet?
Just in case not, here it is:



Unless the thing is on clearance, I will never buy. Once again, it's just a bot with a jetpack.
At least, Grimlock have something original going on.

Considering they're right next to POTP deluxes which were (they've been reduced to $29, but they were $35) which are much better looking figures and are slightly more complex, yeah, ridiculous doesn't quite cover it.

I saw some "deluxes" and "ultras" in person and holy crap... Those are Happy Meal toys passing of as legit deluxes and voyagers. A shame.
So far, only the big ultimate class Optimus and Megatron are what I may consider genuine transformers of quality. 40$CAN (one million $ in AU) for a big "leader" figure that is good looking on all sides, have a fun gimmick, and have Cybertron-like plastics is just perfect. How the hell the smaller figures don't have the same level of quality? #-o

Not even a whole bot, just the front of a bot. That's got to be the most hollow thing they've ever tried to pass off as a mass retail transforming figure. Even Cyber Series puts those to shame at roughly the same size, same articulation, and almost half the price.

Ok, this is just me being a bit... pet peeved about what Class people are calling the figures and the expectations they bring, but hear me out:

Cyberverse is not Generations, nor is Warrior Class the same as Deluxe Class (or for that matter, the same as RiD 2015 Warrior Class sadly), and was never meant to be. Cyberverse (and the Bumblebee Movie figures) are gimmicky toys first and foremost, not the high-end articulated figures we've come to expect.

Taking an example from the Bumblebee Movie, the regular line is focused around the Energon Igniter gimmick, while the more articulated figures for the fans are separated and part of the Studio Series, which falls under Generations. With Cyberverse's Action Attack gimmick for its line, we shouldn't really expect anything high-end until for some reason Hasbro announces a Generations line-up after the cartoon takes off :lol:

Not even a whole bot, just the front of a bot. That's got to be the most hollow thing they've ever tried to pass off as a mass retail transforming figure. Even Cyber Series puts those to shame at roughly the same size, same articulation, and almost half the price.

Oh yeah. The hollowness. I tried to burn off the picture from my memory.
I mean, holy crap, we can make a sizable portion of Jell-O in that thing. #-o

Cyberverse is not Generations, nor is Warrior Class the same as Deluxe Class (or for that matter, the same as RiD 2015 Warrior Class sadly), and was never meant to be. Cyberverse (and the Bumblebee Movie figures) are gimmicky toys first and foremost, not the high-end articulated figures we've come to expect.

Taking an example from the Bumblebee Movie, the regular line is focused around the Energon Igniter gimmick, while the more articulated figures for the fans are separated and part of the Studio Series, which falls under Generations. With Cyberverse's Action Attack gimmick for its line, we shouldn't really expect anything high-end until for some reason Hasbro announces a Generations line-up after the cartoon takes off :lol:


I think your wise words are falling on deaf ears :lol:

I think what's driving some of the discussion is the price that's been charged for these.

I guess gimmickry drives up the price for no apparent reason?

Only when you're the only one that seems to have a problem. Get over it, let it go, it's not even an issue.
